[PATCH 0/2] platform/x86: hp-wmi: Add manual fan support for Victus S laptops

[Krishna Chomal]

This series adds support for manual fan speed control and PWM reporting
for HP Victus S-style laptops.

The first patch refactors the hwmon implementation to use a per-device
private context for state tracking. It implements RPM-to-PWM conversion
using linear interpolation based on the laptop's internal fan tables
retrieved via WMI. It also introduces PWM_MODE_MANUAL, allowing users
to set specific fan speeds.

The second patch addresses a firmware-specific behavior where the
system reverts to "Auto" fan mode after a 120-second timeout if no WMI
fan commands are received. A delayed workqueue is implemented to act
as a keep-alive heartbeat, refreshing the fan state every 90 seconds
to ensure user-selected profiles remain active indefinitely.

Tested on: HP Omen 16-wf1xxx (board ID 8C78)

[PATCH 1/2] platform/x86: hp-wmi: add manual fan control for Victus S models

[Krishna Chomal]

Add manual fan speed control and PWM reporting for HP Victus S-series
laptops.

While HPWMI_FAN_SPEED_SET_QUERY was previously added to reset max fan
mode, it is actually capable of individual fan control. This patch
implements hp_wmi_fan_speed_set() to allow manual control and hides
PWM inputs for non-Victus devices as the query is Victus specific.

The existing hp_wmi_fan_speed_max_get() query is unreliable on Victus S
firmware, often incorrectly reporting "Auto" mode even when "Max" is
active. To resolve this synchronization issue, move state tracking to
a per-device private context and enforce "Auto" mode during driver
initialization to ensure a consistent starting point.

Tested on: HP Omen 16-wf1xxx (board ID 8C78)

[PATCH 2/2] platform/x86: hp-wmi: implement fan keep-alive

[Krishna Chomal]

The firmware on some HP laptops automatically reverts the fan speed
control to "Auto" mode after a 120 second timeout window.

To ensure that the user-selected fan profile (Max/Manual) persists,
implement a keep-alive mechanism that periodically refreshes the fan
mode trigger before the timeout occurs.

- Introduce a delayed workqueue to trigger the fan mode refresh every 90
  seconds, ensuring the system maintains the correct fan mode setting.
- Integrate the refresh mechanism into hp_wmi_hwmon_enforce_ctx() to
  start, update or cancel the keep-alive process based on the current
  fan mode.

This ensures that the driver stays in sync with the hardware.

Tested on: HP Omen 16-wf1xxx (board ID 8C78)

These look not needing to be macros at all but could be written as static 
functions which makes typing explicit.

Can this be NULL? Is it a bug in the driver/kernel if it is?

So this only works correctly due to C's integer promotion when doing

Return can be done directly on the line with the call.

I don't understand why this function is named as "enforce context". 
Perhaps change function's name to something that better describes what it 
does.

I suggest you change "ctx" in the name to something more meaningful.

Does this end up coping from uninitialized fan_data (insize = 4)?

Heh, a cast disguished as a bitwise and (due to misleading spacing).

Can you make a real struct out of this so you could access the members 
properly without these literal offsets and casting madness? You might need 
to use DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY().

This is now duplicating the switch/case, just add these to the existing 
cases.

You may want to introduce ret variable already in PATCH 1/2 and add a note 
there that an upcoming change is going to add keep-alive so the return 
value has to be stored temporarily.

(I only now understand why you named this function like this, and I still 
don't think it's a good name for it as you've other callers besides this 
one real "enforcing" case.)

Yes, it relies on promotion, but for clarity I have added explicit cast

I have renamed "enforce_ctx" to "apply_fan_settings" in v2. That seems
like a more descriptive and self-explanatory name.

Yes that cast does look like a bitwise AND. I was merely trying to satisfy
checkpatch --strict, but it seems like it is best to ignore the warning in
this case. Anyway, I agree that such casting creates unnecessary
complexity. I have added struct victus_s_fan_table to handle this more
gracefully in v2.

[PATCH v2 0/2] platform/x86: hp-wmi: Add manual fan support for Victus S laptops

[Krishna Chomal]

This series adds support for manual fan speed control and PWM reporting
for HP Victus S-style laptops.

The first patch refactors the hwmon implementation to use a per-device
private context for state tracking. It implements RPM-to-PWM conversion
using linear interpolation based on the laptop's internal fan tables
retrieved via WMI. It also introduces PWM_MODE_MANUAL, allowing users
to set specific fan speeds.

The second patch addresses a firmware-specific behavior where the
system reverts to "Auto" fan mode after a 120-second timeout if no WMI
fan commands are received. A delayed workqueue is implemented to act
as a keep-alive heartbeat, refreshing the fan state every 90 seconds
to ensure user-selected profiles remain active indefinitely.

Changes in v2:
- Refactored hp_wmi_apply_fan_settings() to use a 'ret' variable and use
  a common path to set fan settings and prepare for keep-alive logic.
- Replaced raw buffer casting with proper fan table structs.
- Converted RPM/PWM macros to static inline functions.
- Renamed internal context variable from 'ctx' to 'priv' for consistency.
- Renamed delay macro to KEEP_ALIVE_DELAY_SECS.
- Added missing headers and removed redundant NULL checks.

Tested on: HP Omen 16-wf1xxx (board ID 8C78)

[PATCH v2 1/2] platform/x86: hp-wmi: add manual fan control for Victus S models

[Krishna Chomal]

Add manual fan speed control and PWM reporting for HP Victus S-series
laptops.

While HPWMI_FAN_SPEED_SET_QUERY was previously added to reset max fan
mode, it is actually capable of individual fan control. This patch
implements hp_wmi_fan_speed_set() to allow manual control and hides
PWM inputs for non-Victus devices as the query is Victus specific.

The existing hp_wmi_fan_speed_max_get() query is unreliable on Victus S
firmware, often incorrectly reporting "Auto" mode even when "Max" is
active. To resolve this synchronization issue, move state tracking to
a per-device private context and apply "Auto" mode during driver
initialization to ensure a consistent starting point.

Refactor hp_wmi_apply_fan_settings() to use an intermediate ret
variable. This prepares the switch block for keep-alive logic being
added in a later patch, avoiding the need for duplicated mode check.

Tested on: HP Omen 16-wf1xxx (board ID 8C78)

Changes in v2:
- Added limits.h and minmax.h headers
- Re-written pwm-to-rpm (and vice-versa) conversion from macros to
  static inline functions
- Removed redundant NULL checking of drvdata
- Made integer promotion explicit by casting intermediate result to
  unsigned int when calculating the GPU fan speed
- Renamed "enforce_ctx" to "apply_fan_settings" for clarity
- Removed unnecessary comments
- Renamed "ctx" to "priv" as it is more consistent for drvdata
- Added new struct victus_s_fan_table to avoid complex type casting

[PATCH v2 2/2] platform/x86: hp-wmi: implement fan keep-alive

[Krishna Chomal]

The firmware on some HP laptops automatically reverts the fan speed
control to "Auto" mode after a 120 second timeout window.

To ensure that the user-selected fan profile (Max/Manual) persists,
implement a keep-alive mechanism that periodically refreshes the fan
mode trigger before the timeout occurs.

- Introduce a delayed workqueue to trigger the fan mode refresh every 90
  seconds, ensuring the system maintains the correct fan mode setting.
- Integrate the refresh mechanism into hp_wmi_hwmon_enforce_ctx() to
  start, update or cancel the keep-alive process based on the current
  fan mode.

This ensures that the driver stays in sync with the hardware.

Tested on: HP Omen 16-wf1xxx (board ID 8C78)

Changes in v2:
- Explicitly specify time unit in KEEP_ALIVE_DELAY macro
- Handle work rescheduling directly in switch/case
